Hey Joe

Hey Joe, to quote Jimi, you've stolen my bike

You ride it to hide and for fleeing from life

Your father, your job, and perhaps your new wife

And mostly from me 'cause you know I don't like

Avoidance of elephants, lies that are white

You ask me to lay off and give you a break

Well go buy a Kit Kat for God's fuckin sake

I'll never be formal if it's to be fake

And you're free to tell me to jump in a lake

I love it there anyway, water is great

Emotions are oceans of which we're the waves 

Just feel them, they're healing, and you'll be okay

Baby Mage

Baby mage with all I need

Here to heal and born to lead

Soul with know and eyes that see

Made to love and magically

Told not so and disbelieved 

Pumped with poison, put to sleep

Had to beg and sit at feet

Cursed with words and gnashing teeth

Here's the deal and what relief 

I came down to Earth to teach

Found my way, my wings, the keys

Get out of my way, dillweeds

The Weather

Jess, a Capricorn 

One wondering why she's born

She's poring through her natal chart for why she's come to form

Was she a letter torn?

A dress that wasn't worn

Now Saturn's sent a stellium in her with which to warn

It's she who is the storm

Both wintry and warm

One weathering no matter what her way wishes to harm

A staple standing strong 

She's climbing up and on

From doe to goat of sea to sky whose life is right and long

Fire Alarm

Forest fire that guards my moon

Backdraft up against monsoon

Wave of flames outside my womb

Mustn't let me speak too soon

Give my love away to whom

Steals my cake, pops my balloon

Sinks a knife in my cocoon 

Stabs my heart and leaves the room

Bleeds me out inside my tomb

Does this do me good or harm?

Out of reach, at length of arm

Lonely Goetherd on her farm

Chicken dinner missing parm

What use are my wit and charm?

Trapped behind this fire alarm

Our Lilian

Live in the moment, our Lilian insists

For time is a crime that's designed to restrict

She's down here from Venus where Earth is a myth

A Libra to teach us the present's a gift

That planing is pandering to thieves and bandits

Control and cajoling by trolls and such twits

Her wish is to open our eyes up to this

To show us what truly is making us tick

That love is the stuff that does turn this planet

Bring beauty and balance and kindness to it

Ferdinand

Ferdinand and bumble bee

Beside his flowers, beneath his tree

In love with life and all beauty 

Who knows that very secretly

Inside his heart and underneath

He's bored with all the hierarchy 

With fighting and accomplishing

For matadors inside their rings 

Instead he'd like to come to me

A girl of his soul family

To whom he has been listening 

Whose learned to change her energy

To speak and issue boundaries

And clear her karmic balancing

My bull of grace and power too

Beware the ones who harness you

You'll do the work they want you to

And not what you came here to do

My Message

Mermaid kisses, Pisces fishes

Neptune's net awash in wishes

Pearls in curls and tangled tresses

Sin with fins in seaweed dresses

Lure in men to depths and deathses

No, not I, no lie, not wretched 

Send your heart to sea, I'll fetch it

Bring your dream to me, I'll bless it

Share your darkest deeds, my precious 

Unbottle and read my message

Fully Formed

From Heaven in my rage I'm torn

Away from skies my stars adorn

Into this tiny human born

On fire with ire and lit with scorn

Still reeling, my last life I mourn

I've told my soul and to it sworn

I'd speak my piece and blow my horn

I'd finally harvest all this corn

No matter leech nor locust swarm

Resistance or electric storm

My gift is this and fully formed

Earth Odyssey

Earth to a Space Oddity

Join us on an odyssey

Por favor and pretty please

They could use your company

We will wipe your memory

Blend your friends and enemies

Foe within your family

With you they will not agree

Then send men who stoically 

Hide their hearts historically 

Use your skills accordingly

Planets and your poetry

Open them emotionally

Help us heal them, hopefully

Angel Cake

Of asteroids from outer space

Entwined with vines that interlace

Combined with wine and angel cake

Inclined to shine and instigate

Perfected in God's Easy-Bake

With lovely lines and interface

Sent down from stars at Heaven's gate

I'm served with bird and wound with snake

On spitting fire and spinning plates

At home on domes and in earthquakes

Disguised in geysers and great lakes

I spin through wind on coastal capes

I'm everywhere and anyplace 

The Ticket

One cannot take from you

Internal revenue 

A wild west within

Step right on up and in

My ladies, gentlemen 

The ticket to attend

Dead-center, straight as pin

Bonanza, bullseye, win

It's you, that's who, the end

Two Birds, One Life

From killing men 

To healing them

A launching pad

A racer rad

Turned on myself 

God knows who else

Extreme, I know

Immensely so

I'll make it right

Two birds, one life

I'm sorry and

I'll make amends

UFO

I own a UFO, you know

It's dressed in sexy silver tone

Teflex impressed with ribbon bows

With lights lit up like lunar nodes

I take it nights to Tokyo

Tibet, Tawain, and Kokomo

Nepal, New York, and Mexico

To meet extra terrestrials

New friends, fun men, and other souls

Eat Dippin Dots and sloppy joes

Play Uno cards and read tarot

Jump hopscotch, rope, and rodeo

From Dusk till Dawn until I go

Back home to roam my capitol

I'll meet you day or evening, yo

Please be prepared to party though

The Dead

The dead in my head

Beside me in bed

Outside in my shed

Around me in web

I'm not scared, instead

I go where I'm led

I follow this thread

Record what they've said

Their word I then spread

Remix it, you've read

For this, I've been bred

Your Verse

A day that you seize 

It goes endlessly 

The show does not cease

It's on constantly

Long after you leave

Things grow from your seed

In life's poetry

What will your verse be?

By Heart

Got my Gwen Stefani bindi 

Walking in the sun like Cyndi

Out in space with Mork & Mindy

Inbetween like darling Wendy

In my garden, eat me/drink me

Lost at sea, in stars, completely 

Call on me by heart if need be

I'll be in my lamp with Genie

Make Up

Against my self and soul - a crime

Of wasting talents of my mind

Avoiding truth, denying sign

Restricting signals from divine

My health in shambles and decline

From years in fear and on sidelines

For this I pay a fee and fine

I think exclusively in rhyme

Compelled to spell where I'm behind

To make up for this missing time 

My wish, just this: through it to find

My counterpart and kindred kind

Collective Conscious

This art that you appreciate

These artists you so celebrate

You sing along, pontificate

Lay back and watch what others make

Get drunk, and high, and medicate

Quote Kerouac and Willy Shakes

Write papers on how they're so great

Then mock me, send me side-eye hate

For veering off your boilerplate

Hello McFly, I can't relate

And I will give it to you straight

You ever stop to think - hey wait

Perhaps I can participate 

How do they come up with, create?

These gifts and talents you equate

With high IQ's and genius traits

The point where they originate

It's a collective conscious state

Expression is unique, innate

But we all have this access, mate

Turn on, tune in, for goodness sake

Caretake

Unlock my heart-shaped garden gate

Collapse in coral bells and wait 

Into my tuberose escape

To heaven-scented sugarscapes

In this my mystic meadow place

I've made no messes nor mistakes

I've caused no harm or hearts to break

I'm given penance, pardon, grace

A smile is spreading 'cross my face

For when the winds stir me awake

I'm free as flowers as I caretake

Matching Moons

My grandma Peggy

Born 1920

A Virgo like me

And matching moonsies

A Scot overseas

With hair like Lucy

To Texas, to see

What else there might be

Back in the forties

(I mean the nineteens)

A cowgirl from green

John Wayne with Maureen 

You find what you need?

I'll keep on looking 

Bobby

Bobby the Iranian

Thought I was a lesbian

'Cause I wouldn't sleep with him

Stayed at home with pad & pen

Engineer and atheist 

Said I was the craziest

American that he'd witnessed

Analyst and anarchist 

True, I wasn't made for it

Up and left that damn office

Sealed with my ass to kiss

Like him, I go where I wish

Mr. Lotta

Chris's Father - Charles Lotta

Taught of Dot and bush koalas

Kangaroo and duckbill plata

Fairy bread and egg pavlova

Played us didge and said we gotta

Be authentic, always oughta

Spoke of music's healing powers

Poems and prose and pretty flowers

Asked of us we honor ours

And I do all day, each hour
